I kinda like it if they are just going to call her Iyla. If they are going to call her by both names it's a little over the top, but it's not a bad name.

I like it. I like the first name on its own.

Not the worst we've heard I don't think.

I read in People that they were told the baby was a boy, and were surprised when it turned out to be a girl. I don't mind the name - there have certainly been worse ones!

I think as long as they don't tell people how it's pronounced, it could be a pretty name.

Better than Apple.

Variations of Iyla are popular here.
I have heard worse, ABCDE comes to mind.

I don't think it's NEAR as bad as the others listed. I think it's cute, as lone as you don't know how it's really supposed to sound. Vue is a little odd, though.

It isn't that bad although I have NO IDEA who the parents are.

Iyla (and any other spelling variations) is definitely gaining in popularity, so the first name on its own is pretty basic, even trendy sounding. The combo is a bit much for me, personally, but really, if a parent wants to go cutesie or clever with their kids' names, at least this one has a nice message behind it.  |

My BFF had a baby a few months ago and named her Eila which she pronounces as Iyla. I've never heard it, but I think it's a pretty name. |

As a little kid, I had an aunt named Ila. My grandma always pronounced it Iler.

At some point that child is going to ask her parents "What the hell were you thinking, oh, wait, obviously you weren't". Then she will legally change her name to something reasonable.

Why wouldn't they use the traditional spelling of Isla, though? I hate kr8tiv spellings. (And yes, I know that's ironic based on my own name, but I think that gives my opinion more weight: PARENTS, DON'T DO THIS TO YOUR KIDS!)

Yes, poor kid. Another case of "everybody look at me and talk about me and what I named my child because I'm so awesome."

Why? Her first name is pretty normal, and they will most likely not call her by her first and middle names. |

The first day of school and lots of subs comes to mind. Our kids attendance rosters always printed the whole name. Subs oftentimes read the entire name. It runs together so fluently I can see it happening. I oftentimes called my classroom kids by their middle names too when were doing something they shouldn't instead of getting angry at them. |

I like the name Eye-lah. (Don't spell it this way, it's only for pronunciation purposes). But put that whole name together, nope. Poor kid.

I went to elementary school with a girl named Ayla. I believe she was Turkish.

I have an Ila... so I guess I like the first name, not the middle name though.
